[QUOTE="Jock's Ghost, post: 317678, member: 1183"] Digger is the kind of prideful jackass that if Jock had given him just some money, he'd not accept it and would rather live in the guttter than take it and do something postive with it. Digger was the kind of person who was born to lose. A gambler at life, not with cards. If there was high stakes anything he was intent on losing it and he did. Always found that flaw fascinating in any character. .... I saw an interview with Lucille Ball where she praised Desi, but said he was born to lose. No matter how great he had it, he had to make it better even when it made it worse, which is what he did..... Digger was in competition at first with Jock then his family. Then himself, yet no one cared. Had he just stopped drinking he could have done whatever he wanted..... Drunks, drug addicts like digger need an enemy to blame for their addictions. "If not for so and so, i wouldnt be in this mess." The blame never touches who it deserves. Always someone else to blame. It makes not having any accountability feel good. Digger kept singing that song for 50 years. His kids believed it. No one else did. [/QUOTE]
